Code graph tool efficiency varies by AI model and repository size in benchmark

A developer benchmarked a code graph tool against standard grep for AI coding agents across four public repositories of varying sizes. The test used Claude's Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus models to answer structural and exact-match coding questions. For large repositories like Kubernetes and VS Code, the Haiku model with the graph tool was significantly cheaper and more accurate on structural queries. However, the Sonnet model saw little benefit on large projects and higher costs on small ones, while Opus showed negligible efficiency gains.
